OpenSecrets Dot Org links to the official FEC filings by Blue America which shows the following address:

Committee ID: C00427617

BLUE AMERICA PAC

PO Box 27201
Los Angeles, CA 90027

Treasurer Name: Klein, Howard

Would they be annoyed if we mailed checks to that address, earmarked for the FISA fight?

I’ve said it before, and now I’ll repeat it - folks like Hoyer and Pelosi aren’t going to take us seriously until we show that we can hurt them. We did that once by defeating Al Wynn. We need to prove that wasn’t a fluke. So fight smart, and use this money to hurt the guy most directly responsible for this travesty, should it come to pass.</p> Thanks for this update, Christy.
